New CAF Unit Fax Numbers

Practitioners who represent taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service must have a valid Power of Attorney form (Form 2848) on file in order to access their clients’ confidential tax account information.  You can always mail a F2848, but the quickest and easiest way to file is by fax.  Since tax relief is typically an urgent matter, I always file by fax.  Once the POA has been filed and processed at one of the three IRS “CAF Units,” it can be accessed by various IRS employees throughout the nation.

After October 1, 2012 the old fax numbers at the Ogden and Memphis centers will no longer be functional.
